17-19th april
we picked out if we wanted to do either dance or drama i initially wanted to do drama but there was already too many people wanted to do it so i switched over i didn't mind too much would have preferred it though. to learn the characters and what it was going to be like so we watched midsummer nights dream to get a jist of everything with all the old Shakespearean language even though when it came to the first recording of the drama students they were speaking quite normally throughout the recording.
24-26th April
we started the contingency plan for the drama group i worked on asses and resource management this meant that we checked the cameras and all the equipment to make sure everything was in check like rigs tripods. on Tuesday we watched the performance to Gage an idea of what it will be like and Wednesday we did library work
1-3rd may
on the Tuesday we watched the full play through but with dress rehearsal and then on the Wednesday we went into the theatre to make sure everything was accounted for and all the health and saftey checks were done like wires tapped.
9-10th may
another bank holiday Monday which meant another day missing the dance rehearsals the Tuesday and Wednesday were just ac days
15-17th may
i was off ill on the Monday but chloe gave me a run down of what went on with th dance rehearsals then on the Tuesday and Wednesday it was all ac work as the dancers aren't ready for us to be in there with them at the same time this is slightly annoying as the drama group got lots of time to plan and watch the rehearsals
22-24 may
on Monday we went down to the theatre to watch the rehearsals this is so we can plan what shots we need and where to place everyone we also drew out sketches of the floor plans to backup this. Tuesday we went down to the there to watch a final rehearsal before the full dress rehearsal during this time me and Chloe went round telling everyone what the plan is and what is going to happen as well as how we want them to film i think we did very well setting up everyone's cameras too
